Does anyone know what the holes on top of the phone are for & would you recommend removing the tape?

Largest is headphone jack, medium sized one is IR, small tiny one is a sound cancellation mic that works in conjunction with the one on the bottom.
What is the IR hole?

The S4 has an IR blaster so you can use it like a universal remote for your TV. Open the WatchOn app and you can use the universal remote from there. Haven't tried it on 3rd party apps yet.
Oh, that's right. I already used it

Anyone else have this? I am finding if I apply pressure just below the camera and above the samsung logo I get a creak noise. Seems to happen when I'm holding it a certain way.
No. Tight fit.
The home button is sticky & fidgety.
Nope, not at all.

I had the back cover on and off a few times now and its not doing it anymore so I guess it was just not fitted right.
Thanks for your input
Whenever it is unlocked and I place it on top of a card with a magnetic strip. Does this mean that it can use wireless charging?

Dafuq ??
Your phone has a magnetic sensor in it, it's attracting the contents of the strip ... That sound/act doesn't means it is gonna charge wirelessly....
That's all I know....
Well idk how the wireless charging works, I thought maybe it had something to do with a magnetic field. What does the magnetic sensor do?

Now that makes sense I was trying to figure out why something with such a small magnetic field would get a reaction from the device where the magnets from my name tag doesn't when my phones in my shirt pocket....

Just wondering what other devices you guys are using your note 3 to control. I didn't even know you could use it for things other than a TV. In the xda YouTube video review of the note 3, the reviewer mentioned he was using his note to control the camera he was using to record.

It can control anything that uses IR to receive signals and messages.
How can you use it for other things? Only options in the watch on app are Tvs and top boxes

What would you like it to do?
Of course, I use it with:
My TV's
My Dish Sets
My Projector
My Nikon
And right now I'm in the works of making my garage door work as well.
PD. I recommend using the smart remote app instead of the watchon one.

What app are you using ?
This small addon is one of the major reasons I will upgrade from note 2. Anyone tried controlling AC ?

Best one I've found so far. Simple and quick.
The Watch On app is the one that came with your phone with a fuscia icon and a tv BUT if your signature is right your phone doesn't have an IR Blaster nor this Samsung app

Just started looking into using the IR and noticed that app you pointed to is on sale this Easter.
I am using this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=remote.control.samsung
It works with my TV, BD player, Settop box(Tata sky)
The G2 has two outputs sound down, only one is only giving sound!
Is that really so or is my phone is faulty? Algém can confirm this please?
If you put your finger over the outlet on the right side the phone is practically no sound!
Sorry for my English, google ...
The G2 has only one speaker on the bottom, the other is a mic. Just like the iPhone.

why did it work before?
Maybe you need a specific kind? I tried one from a palm before...didn't work.
Tho I see no point in it. Ha...a pun! LOL. But really....I'd prefer my fingers any day.
Just my preference.
